«The ruined landscape of our present appears inscrutable. Nevertheless,
this book provides us with a new cartography, accompanied by a political
question: what would happen if the ciphered text of our time could only
be understood through a condensed monetary code? With this as the
starting point, an artistic cryptanalysis of the age of late capitalism
unfolds relentlessly. The “era of the literal” appears to shape forms
according to money: all the objects in the world, each one of our most
intimate desires and -in short- the entire world itself, suffer a fierce
alchemy according to the impulse of a monetary rewriting of life. If
money itself is a work of art, what is the place for art in the world of
money? With its disturbing answer to this question, this book is a call
-the final call- for the reader to awaken, alongside art, a new
politics.» (Fabián Ludueña Romandini)
